. EVA REEGE SUR
PRISED ON HER BIRTHDAY
AT IDE PARMELE
"Shadowed by Three" an Inter
esting and Up-to-Date Pro
duction Januarys 10th.
W. F. Mann, the well-known Chi
cago play producer, has been the first
theatrical manager to actively co
operate with John D. Rockefeller, Jr.,
Attorney Waymen and the Law and
Order League for the suppression of
the nefarious white slave traffic. Mr.
Mann has Just launched in his latest
production, "Shadowed by Three," a
terrifflc arraignment against police
debauchery and civic graft as it Is
related to the exploiting of the un
derworld of our great American
cities, and of Chicago in particular.
The plot of "Shadowed by Three" Is
limned against the background of the
notorious McCann trial which so re
cently caused an upheaval In the Chi
cago police department and whose
very mention causes the city hall
rang to turn blue round the gills.
Indeed the Inspector McCann of the
play might be truthfully said to be a
sketch from life of the downfallen
McCann. The play pictures this Tsar
of the nolsesome underworld In a
wonderfully vivid fashion. He is
seen In his headquarters office, re
ceiving tribute from vice queens and
; aiders, yet doing all he can to un
dermine the commonwealth and de
bauch It. Then by a single turn In
tho scales of fate, he Is toppled over
from his throne, even as McCann of
Chicago was, and left a broken, help
less, pitiful wreck of his former self.
Contrasted to this archir.aster of the
levee Is told the story of a winsome,
Innocent girl, who to save her family
from Impending disgrace, leaves
lorae and ventures her way alone
amid devious paths of Chicago's by
ways. How through her own inher
ent goodness and good sense, and
through the skill and courage of her
lover, a New York detective, she is
saved irom a fate of shame and is the
ultimate cause of McCann's downfall,
Is tol.l in bold, stirring episodes and
racy dialogue. Though "Shadowed
by Three" Is frankly melodramatic in
many of Its scenes, and realistic to
the laht degree, it is intensely human
and rlosees with a picture of human
Happiness and hope. The very grlm
ness of some of the scenes of the play
give to them a certain unconscious
humor which In no way however, les
sens the ultimate dramatic effect but
rather heightens It through its fidel
ity to human nature.
Mr. Mann will present "Shadowed
by Three" with the original cast and
production as seen during Chicago
vun of the play.
An event looked forward to by all users of this
useful article. The prtsent season finds us with more

Mrs. Eva Reese was made the re
cipient of a more than pleasant sur
prise last evening by a number of her
neighbors and friends. When the
ghostly figures flitted In on her, Mrs.
Reese was, both, completely surprised
and frightened and at first did not
recognize any of her guests, as they
were all dressed In sheets and pillow
cases. But Mrs. Reese soon recovered
and (proceeded to entertain tho In
vaders In her usual happy manner
The occasion of this most enjoyable
masquerado surprise was the birth
day anniversary of Mrs. Reese and
the neighbors and friends, who had
assembled at her home on last even
ing, celebrated the event in a manner
w hich w ill long be remembered.
Mrs. Reese was given two chances
at guessing whom the ghostly figures
might bo and succeeded In guessing
all but two out of the twenty-five. The
tlmo was then very pleasantly spent
In various amusements, such as cards,
music and tho like, there being sev
eral games of cards played. The In
vaders had come well armed with
baskets filled with good things to eat
and during the evening a delicious
luncheon w as prepared, and which, at
a convenient hour, was served In two
courses. At a late hour and after
wishing Mrs. Reese many more such
happy anniversaries, the invaders
withdrew their forces, reporting a
royal good time.

There Is a Heap of Solace In Be
ing Able to Depend Upon a
Well Earned Reputation
For months Plattsmouth readers
have seen the constant expression of
praise for Doan's Kidney Pills, and
read about the good work they have
done In thi3 locality. Not another
remedy ever produced suoh convinc
ing proof of merit.
Mrs. John Sharp, Third and Dyke
streets, l'lattsmoutn, leo., says:
For a long time I had trouble from
my back and kidneys. There were
terrible pains in the small of my
back, often extending Into my hips
and limbs and though I doctored and
tried various medicines, I was not re
lieved. About a year ago I procured
Doan's Kidney Pills from Gering &
Co's drug store and In a short time
they brought me entire relief. This
remedy has my highest endorsement."
(Statement given June 9, 1906.)
On December 29, 1908, Mrs. Sharp
said: "I gladly confirm mv former
endorsement of Doan's Kidney Pills.
I still think highly of this remedy,
knowing that It is a splendid one In
cases of kidney trouble."
